Murphy) The most current instruction that I've seen in the Navy concerning Warrents notes that there are no W-1s being made in the Navy at this time. People go from E6 to CWO-2. The insignia of warrent officers differs between the braches of service. A recent poster offered a Hypercard stack of rank insignia, which shows the differences in warrent insignia. The best part of being a warrent is that you have most of the privileges of a commission and most of the responsibility of an enlisted.
